Yes lee , bush became coal and burns. Beijing has Aussie smoke. Wuhan Iron and Steel Co , WISCO, uses coal which probably caused chest problems and vulnerability to Corona.

If you live on fat and sugar and weigh 324 kg you can thank fat and sugar. A solar-powered airship built by a U.K.-based company could be a big step towards a 100 percent renewable world. Varialift's airship will use helium gas to lift off, which is a great deal safer than the hydrogen that airships of the past used. It's been estimated that the cost of the Varialift aircraft would be comparable to a jumbo jet.

This greener airship would use only 8 percent of the fuel a conventional jet airplane uses.

perhaps you would like to open a thread about it?

your posting is off topic here and warrants it's own thread
